Hi, I am running a Solaris 10 box on a v20z with 11/06 release. It has got ZFS pool configured on S1 storage box with 3 146gb disks (it has got lot of data) I am planning to upgrade the machine to the new hardware with the new Solaris 10 release of 8/07 and to the new hardware of X2200M2.
I am wondering will there be any thing that I need to take care of before putting the S1 storage box onto the new hardware X2200 pulling from the old hardware, meaningly do I need to sync any data before the switch of the system to the new hardware (essentially switch of the storage to be plugged to the new hardware). Do I need to do any kind of sync of zfs metadata? If I simply pull out the S1 storage box(on which the zfs is configured for a long time now with data) and plug it to the new hardware, will the OS with new release detect the pool as it is ? and also have the data on it? or Will it detect them as the new disks to be configured again from scratch? I do not want to lose any data. Kindly suggest what is to be done here. Thanks, Nikhil
